Yes, yes I agree fully here... although as mentioned, it will take a monumental effort to displace these two.... because they're simply the pits.

True enough, we're at least 3 or 4 knobjockeys short of those two sides...

Got to blame Australia anyway, JKL... we try and match how they do 'things cricket' so it was obvious that we were going to try and act like qunts.

India are a different story, their quntishness comes from the fact their board is the richest and hence they think they're de facto better than everyone else. You know how intense Indians are about class.

F*ck off in your white van back to lower lower grammar school Ngam, and when you're done asking for pardon, you can bloody well also tug your forelock when you speak to me.

... tug his forelock?

Monkeys are famous for that, I believe.

Well.... famous for tugging at something, anyway. Wink

You know me, I tell it like it is... You've got to ro-o-oll with the punches to get to what's real.

That was the Gallaghers' soup song wasn't it? You gotta roll with it?

A soup song of something anyway. Perhaps garlic.

Swann, Cricinfo article wrote:

Efforts such as the one he produced in this match will aid his overall development as a player, because as Swann himself said, he was forced to alter his natural gameplan to conquer conditions that didn't aid his variations. There was even an unveiling of a ball that went the other way, which he coyly admitted was something he'd been working on - "I've not come up with a name for it yet, as spinners are supposed to do," he said. "Perhaps I'll call it the Chittagong.

Did anyone see it? I watched quite a bit of the play and didn't notice it.

Damn, no. Still VH (as Mr. I got) are no better, possibly worse.
